Using Interactive FTAM
Performing Remote Directory Operations
The cattr command can perform the actions in Table 2-4. Use the
associated cattr command option to request an action.
Syntax of the cattr Command
The syntax for the cattr command is as follows:
cattr -dinflsv new_attribute [-dinflsv new_attribute] ... file
The cattr command always works on files in the remote filestore you are
connected to. You can use one or more options in a command (one at a
time, each followed by its argument). See Table 2-4 and the examples
that follow it.
